And consequently incurable. II is impossible
to describe her sniferings. Her body from the
crown of her head 10 the soles of her feet was a
mass of decay, masses of flesh rOtting Off and
leaving great cavities. Her fingers festered and
three or Jour nails dropped of one at a time.
Her limbs contracted by the fearful liberation
and for several years she did not leave her bed
Her weight was reduced from lbs to 60 pounds
Perhaps some faint idea of her condition can be
CLEANED from the fact that three pounds of Co.'S
moline or ointment were used per week in dress
ing her sores. Finally the physicians acknowl-
edged their defeat by this Black Wolf, and com
mended the sufferer to her All-wise Creator.
Her husband hearing wonderful reports of the
use of SwIPT's SPECIFIC Is. s. 81, prevailed on
her to try il as a last resort. She began its use
under protest, but soon found that her system
was being relieved of the poison, as the sores
assumed red and healthy color, as though the
blood was becoming pure and active. Mrs.
Bailey continued the :. s. S. until last Febru-
airy; every sore was healed; she discarded chair
and crutches, and was for the first time in
twelve years a well woman. Her husband, Mr..
c. A. Bailey, is in business at 1719 blackstone
street, Boston, and will take pleasure in giving
the details of this wonderful cure. Send to us
